Ybbsitz, Austria · Family forge since 1550 🇦🇹

Riess

In the Alpine town of Ybbsitz a pan forge has stood on the Riess family property since 1550. In 1922 the family began making porcelain enamel cookware, and today the ninth and tenth generations run Austria’s only enamel cookware manufactory, powered by their own small hydroelectric plant.

The makers

Nine generations in Ybbsitz

The Riess family took over the forge in 1690 and has passed it down ever since. Julian, Friedrich and Susanne Riess lead the business today, with the next generation already at work beside them.

Each piece goes through many hand steps before it leaves the factory, and the enamel is fired using power from the hydro plant the family has run since the 1920s.

Made to be handed down

Riess enamel is made to last, to cook efficiently and safely, and to be passed on. The brand is now sold in more than 35 countries.
